For agented and un-agented authors.

It can be devastating when a literary business partnership changes and you're searching for the right fit for an agent ... again. Also, how can you be sure you're picking the right agent in the first place?

Agent Stacey Graham from 3 Seas Literary Agency will share how to recognize the signs of when your agent/author relationship may be headed for the rocks, what to try to right the ship, and when it's time to head for the lifeboat in this fast-paced presentation. 

Included:

• If the partnership can't be saved, what are the next steps to get you back on the path to publication? 
• What happens with projects that are currently on submission. 
• Tips on where to find agents taking on new clients, queries, and how to tell a new agent that they've left representation so it doesn't get weird.
• What to ask your agent before you sign with them to be more confident the fit will be right.
• Setting realistic expectations. 

What Attendees Have Said ...

"The information shared was phenomenal!"

"Stacy Graham was a lovely choice to discuss the ins and outs of breaking a current relationship between authors and agents with grace, kindness, and aplomb. The information she provided on outside resources to find an agent, write queries, etc., was also invaluable."

"I had a general knowledge of the topic, but there were aspects of the Agent/Author Relationship that I had not considered that were covered."

"Loved hearing straight from a working agent what the business relationship is like, agent/client. Though not all are the same, Stacey was straightforward and down-to-earth, exactly the personality type of the new agent I'm looking for, so this really worked for me ... there is so much good material here it would be great to offer the workshop to authors at all levels. I'm sure other agents would appreciate potential clients receiving the education so expectations can be understood and negotiated/set right from the beginning."
